Chapter 5 Power ON and Using the Control Panel

Ready mode

The printer is in Ready mode after power is switched on and the self-test is performed.

The LCD (Display) shows “READY” and the READY LED is lit. In this state, you can

perform the media feed, printing stop/restart etc using the keys on the control panel. (See

P12)

The display shows the name of the receiving interface when data is received from the host

computer. In this state, the printer receives and processes the information accordingly.

If no data is received for 5 seconds, the printer returns to Ready mode with no interface

selected and continues to scan all installed interfaces for incoming data.

Menu mode

The printer enters the Menu mode when the

key is pressed. In this state, you

can access the menu system and set the printer configuration and print attributes using the

keys on the control panel. Pressing

again returns to Ready mode.

Navigating the Menu System

The printer uses the same operating procedure to set various print attributes and configuration settings.

This section describes the relationship between the different menu levels as well as the functions of the

keys on the control panel.

can be selected, increased or decreased.

Pressing the

key moves to the next Group Menu available. Pressing the
